Why Attend Hackcon?

Meet Community Leaders

Hackcon is a unique opportunity to meet like-minded individuals from across the country. It’s where friendships are formed, partnerships are started, and tech leaders meet all together in-person one last time before they go off into the real world.

Learn from the Best

There is no better place to learn how to organize a hackathon and run a community on campus. At Hackcon, you’ll have the chance to meet like-minded individuals and hear from the most experienced leaders in our community.

Enjoy the Great Outdoors

Unplug from your devices and enjoy the beautiful scenery of upstate New York. Enjoy a range of fun outdoor activities like swimming, s’mores, and tie dye! By the end of the event, you’ll feel relaxed and recharged for the new school year.
